Mooney Aerospace Group has teamed with the Spanish kit aircraft
manufacturer Construcciones Aeronauticas De Galicia to market the
two-seat Toxo.

The Rotax-powered sportplane will be renamed the Mooney Toxo.
Components will be manufactured in Spain but assembled at Mooney's
plant in Kerrville, Tex. once the new Light Sport Aircraft category
goes into effect.

This was announced at Oshkosh but something is amiss. This airplane has a
stall speed and a top speed that is above what the new Sport plane
category
allows.

As is the MGW:

A bit larger than the original Spanish version, the Mooney Toxo will measure
6.4 feet high, 17.7 feet long and have a wingspan of 26 ft. It is expected
to have an empty weight of around 770 pounds and a maximum gross weight of
1,430 lbs.
